Ravean unveils heated down jacket weighing only 80 grams

Ravean, which had launched the world's first heated down jacket in 2015, has unveiled another heated down jacket, which weighs only 80 grams, half the weight of the original jacket, and about one fifth the weight of a typical winter jacket. Ravean has also increased the new jacket’s mobile smartphone charging ability, as against the earlier jacket.

The heating elements of the jacket are located on the back, chest and pocket areas of the jacket, putting the heat where it is needed most, which comes with low, medium and high settings.

According to the US company, despite being ultra-thin, the latest Raven jacket will keep users warm at temperatures as low as 5 degrees fahrenheit (-15 degrees celsius) and can also be used in sub-zero temperatures when worn as a heated liner under a shell.
